[Blog post] Zig's New CLI Progress Bar Explained - Andrew Kelley

From the blog:

Sometimes, programming projects are too easy and boring. Sometimes, they're too hard, never ending or producing subpar results.

This past week I had the pleasure of completing a project that felt like maximum difficulty - only possible because I am at the top of my game, using a programming language designed for making perfect software. This problem threw everything it had at me, but I rose to the challenge and emerged victorious.

What a rush.

In this blog post I'll dig into the technical implementation as well as provide the Zig Progress Protocol Specification.
